554. Skinny love - Bon Iver





Come on skinny love just last the year
Pour a little salt we were never here
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer

I tell my love to wreck it all
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Right in the moment this order's tall

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be better
I told you to be kind
In the morning i'll be with you
But it will be a different "kind"
I'll be holding all the tickets
And you'll be owning all the fines

Come on skinny love what happened here
Suckle on the hope in lite brassiere
My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my
Sullen load is full; so slow on the split

I told you to be patient
I told you to be fine
I told you to be better
I told you to be kind
Now all your love is wasted?
Then who the hell was i?
Now i'm breaking at the britches
And at the end of all your lines

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
Who will fall far behind?

553. The party - St. Vincent



Honey the party it went away quickly
But oh that's the trouble with ticking and talking
I lick the ice cubes from your empty glass
Oh we've stayed much too late till they're cleaning the ashtrays

Do you have change or a button or cash
Oh my pockets hang out like two surrender flags
Oh but I’d pay anything to keep my conscience clean
I’m keeping my eyes on the exit sign steady now

How did we get here with creaks in these chairs
Oh there aren't enough hands to point all the fingers
But I sit transfixed by a hole in your tee shirt
Oh I’ve said much too much and they're trying to sweep up

552. Hell of a season - The Black Keys



Even though
You don't know
You're reacting all along
What I see
Is killing me
You won't make it on your own

In this hell of a season
Give me more of a reason
To be with you
Be with you, yeah

Say you'll be better
I'll keep waiting forever
You know I do
Know I do, oh

Even though
I don't know
I'm pretending that I do
It's my curse
I can't reverse
I'm still waiting here for you

In this hell of a season
Give me more of a reason
To be with you
Be with you, oh

Say you'll be better
I'll keep waiting forever
You know I do
You know I do, oh

In this hell of season
Give me more of a reason
To be with you
Be with you, yeah

Say you'll be better
I'll keep waiting forever
You know I do
You know I do, oh

In this hell of season
Give me more of a reason
To be with you
Be with you, oh

Say you'll be better
I'll keep waiting forever
You know I do
You know I do, oh

551. We are nowhere and it's now - Bright Eyes



If you hate the taste of wine
Why do you drink it 'til you're blind?
And if you swear that there's no truth and who cares
How come you say it like you're right?
Why are you scared to dream of god
When it's salvation that you want?
You see stars that clear have been dead for years
But the idea just lives on

In our wheels that roll around
As we move over the ground
And all day it seems we've been in between the past and future town

We are nowhere, and it's now
We are nowhere, and it's now
You took a ten-minute dream in the passengers seat
While the world it was flying by
I haven't been gone very long
But it feels like a lifetime

I've been sleeping so strange at night
Side effects they don't advertise
I've been sleeping so strange
With a head full of pesticide

I got no plans and too much time
I feel too restless to unwind
I'm always lost in thought
As I walk a block to my favourite neon sign
Where the waitress looks concerned
But she never says a word
Just turns the jukebox on
And we hum along
And I smile back at her

And my friend comes after work
When the features start to blur
She says these bars are filled with things that kill
By now you probably should have learned

Did you forget that yellow bird?
How could you forget your yellow bird?

She took a small silver wreathe and pinned it onto me
She said this one will bring you love
I don't know if it's true but I keep it for good luck

549. Go on - Basia Bulat



Call this on my awful luck
Skies they opened wide for us
Oh, what a heavy rain it was that covered all of you
The wind has changed, my boy
I never knew a voice like yours
But I know just what good it was, that lie you hold on to.

But to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't bear to lose -
Go on, go on
I couldn't stand to -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

It could've been the one you loved
The visions of the things I'd done
Well, I wouldn't be the only one if you'd only told the truth.
While they chased you down that night
I was pulling feathers from your lies
Oh I swear I saw it in your eyes, you never told it true.

But to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you to -
Go on, go on
I couldn't stand to -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

Oh to call those shadows coming after you -
Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you to -
Go on, go on
I couldn't stand to -
They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your blues.

548. We've been had - The Walkmen



I'm a modern guy I don't care much for the go-go
Or the retro image I see so often telling me to
Keep trying maybe you'll get here someday
Keep up the working, ok.
I close the book on them right there

I see myself change as the days change over.
I hear the songs and the words don't change.
I write them out of the book right there.

We've been had, you say it's over.
Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older.
We've been had I know it's over.
Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud.

See me age 19 with some dumb haircut from
1960 moving to New York City
Live with my friends there we're all taking the same steps seems foolish now .

We've been had you say it's over.
Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older.
We've been had I know it's over.
Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud.

547. Without a song - Frank Sinatra



Without a song, the day would never end
Without a song, the road would never have been
When things go wrong, a man ain't got a friend
Without a song

That field of corn, would never see a plow
That field of corn, would be deserted now
A man is born, but he's no good no how
Without a song

I've got my trouble and woe, but sure as I know
The Jordan will roll
I'll get along, as long as a song
Is strung in my soul

I'll never know, what makes the rain to fall
I'll never know, what makes the grass so tall
I only know, there ain't no love at all
Without a song

546. Invisible ink - Aimee Mann





There comes a time when you swim or sink
So I jumped in the drink
Cuz I couldn't make myself clear

Maybe I wrote in invisible ink
Oh I've tried to think
How I could have made it appear

But another illustration is wasted
Cuz the results are the same
I feel like a ghost who's trying to move your hands
over some ouija board in the hopes I can spell out my name

What some take for magic at first glance
Is just sleight of hand depending on what you believe
Something gets lost when you translate
It's hard to keep straight
Perspective is everything

And I know now which is which and what angle I oughta look at it from
I suppose I should be happy to be misread-
Better be that than some of the other things I have become

Invisible Ink

But nobody wants to hear this tale
The plot is clichéd, the jokes are stale
And baby we've all heard it all before
Oh I could get specific but
Nobody needs a catalog
With details of love I can't sell anymore

And aside from that, this chain of reaction,
baby, is losing a link
Though I'd hope you'd know what I tried to tell you
And if you don't I could draw you a picture in invisible ink

But nobody wants to hear this tale
The plot is clichéd, the jokes are stale
And baby we've all heard it all before
Oh I could get specific but
Nobody needs a catalog
With details of love I can't sell anymore

545. Lisbon - The Walkmen



The countless eyes dotted in the night sky
I speak the language, several hundred words
Cloudless day, thunderous night
Among companions carry my name

The life we lead came gradually
Who keeps the time?
A bitter lime, do us fine
To kill the taste

Turn deaf ears on all that we don't wanna hear
Cause for travel has come again
At this early hour, I tell your wife a story
She looks outside, doubles over laughing

The souls you love, the place you live
Those country houses
A change of heart tore us apart
Oh, what a ride

Every chance you have
All the love and light
All the joy and grace
Don't be upset, don't you think it out
You know what thinking does
to love's shine and love's light

All together world
I'm hanging on
It feels right, yeah

I saw a strange thing
Reminds me of faces
Upon a stormy sky tonight

All the younger kids, gone away to slee
In the days to come, I'll do the same
At this early hour, I'll tell your wife a story
She looks outside, doubles over laughing

But the life we lead came gradually
Who keeps the time?
And a bitter lime, will do us fine
To kill the taste

544. We're from Barcelona - I'm from Barcelona



I'm gonna sing this song with all of my friends
and we're I'm from Barcelona
Love is a feeling that we don't understand
but we're gonna give it to ya
We'll aim for the stars
We'll aim for your heart when the night comes
And we'll bring you love
You'll be one of us when the night comes
I'm gonna sing this song with all of my friends
and we're I'm from Barcelona
Love is a feeling that we don't understand
but we're gonna give it to ya
We'll aim for the stars
We'll aim for your heart when the night comes
And we'll bring you love
You'll be one of us when the night comes

543. Make it with chu - Queens of the stone age



You wanna know if I know why
I can't say that I do
Don't understand the you or I
Or how one becomes two
I just can't recall what started it off
Or how to begin again
I ain't here to break ya
Just see how far it will bend
Again and again, again and again

I wanna make it
I wanna make it wit' chu
Anytime, anywhere
I wanna make it
(Again and again)
I wanna make it wit' chu

Sometimes the same is different
But mostly it's the same
These mysteries of life...
That just ain't my thing
If I told you that I knew about the sun and the moon, I'd be untrue
The only thing I know for sure
Is what I won't do
Anytime, anywhere, and I said...

I wanna make it
(Again and again)
I wanna make it wit' chu
Anytime, anywhere
I wanna make it
(Again and again)
I wanna make it wit' chu
I wanna make it
(Anytime, anywhere)
I wanna make it wit' chu
Yeah
I wanna make it
I wanna make it wit' chu

I wanna make it
(Again and again)
I wanna make it wit' chu
I wanna make it
(Anytime, anywhere)
I wanna make it wit' chu
I wanna make it
(Again and again)
I wanna make it wit' chu
(Again and again, and again, and again)
I wanna make it

542. Sprawl II - The Arcade Fire



They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock,
These days, my life, I feel it has no purpose,
But late at night the feelings swim to the surface.
Cause on the surface the city lights shine,
They're calling at me, "come and find your kind."

Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there's no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.

We rode our bikes to the nearest park,
Sat under the swings, we kissed in the dark,
We shield our eyes from the police lights,
We run away, but we don't know why,
And like a mirror these city lights shine,
They're screaming at us, "we don't need your kind."

Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
That we can never get away from the sprawl,
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there's no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.

They heard me singing and they told me to stop,
Quit these pretentious things and just punch the clock.

Sometimes I wonder if the world's so small,
Can we ever get away from the sprawl?
Living in the sprawl,
Dead shopping malls rise like mountains beyond mountains,
And there's no end in sight,
I need the darkness someone please cut the lights.

541. Counter spark - Sondre Lerche



You could be sad but never torn
You saw the light when it was on
You never turned or looked away
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey

Your sentences were concentrated
You made your points so understated
Where I would mumble, you would say
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey

I made up conversations with my symbolic language
Saying everybody wants to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you

You got the picture from the start
You saw right through me in the dark
You saw that I couldn't behave
With eyes so focused, yet so frail
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/s/sondre+lerche/counter+spark_10218941.html ]
I chose you from a million
You were the choice of billions
Wishing they would try to be like you
But I'd rather fall in love with you

Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...

You questioned men and called them whores
But you would never burn your bra
You held your head up in the rain
Your eyes were focused, mine were grey

You had relationships that worked
And yet experience with jerks
So well adjusted, but with charm
Your eyes were focused and yet calm

I'm fairly realistic
But my thought are out of lip-sync
When I say that I'm not one of those
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you
Who pass you by and fall in love with you

I'll pass you by and fall in love with you

Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...

540. It's over - Sondre Lerche



It's not over at all
You're just trying to smile
I know perfectly well
Such are things we both know
and we think we should say
just to organize the stains
Systems reveal their construction these days
as we escape to drift further away
We know the stars go out one night
but I can't tell you anything you wouldn't know
So nothing has been lost

It's not over at all
If my thoughts could be here
they'd advise you to leave
It's not easy, I know
making hard things look small
But we're dying to try
You have revealed your conclusion by chance
I have replaced you at little expense
We know the stars go out one night
but I can't think of anything I haven't told
So, nothing has been lost

When you could use the words reserved for a sad song
You'll find you've spent them up on God and everyone
Like anyone before

It's not over at all
You're just trying to smile
I know perfectly well
It's not over
but oh, if my thoughts could be here
They'd advice you to leave
We will be cold where the lights are all out
but at least we can think without reason or doubt
I don't know much about this world
but I can tell you one thing as I pass you by
Nothing has been lost

539. Maybe you're gone - Sondre Lerche



You use your patience to stay fine
Time moves on as you prepare
to tell yourself be reasonable
Then come the times you can't foresee
you cannot leave, you can't release
to keep you far from those dreams
Ignoring the right times
Oh, waiting was my life

For now it's too late
for you may not wait
and things that I have yet to know
vanish before they're complete
I may turn around
to see if you're still there
but as for now, it's just not safe
Maybe you'll wait for me
Maybe you're gone

You've been preparing all your life
You've had some trouble getting it right
And you try to tell yourself it may work, as it should
But something good can do much harm
The good may kill for your embrace
to keep you far from those dreams
you know you cannot dream
I'm stuck for now, it seems

538. Across the universe - The Beatles




Words are flowing out like
Endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe.
Pools of sorrow waves of joy
Are drifting through my opened mind
Possessing and caressing me.

Jai Guru Deva. Om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light, which
Dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on across the universe.
Thoughts meander like a
Restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe.

Jai Guru Deva. Om
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter, shades of life
Are ringing through my opened ears
Inciting and inviting me.
Limitless undying love, which
Shines around me like a million suns,
It calls me on and on across the universe

Jai Guru Deva.
Jai Guru Deva.
Jai Guru Deva.
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

537. A comet appears - The Shins



One hand on this wily comet,
Take a drink just to give me some weight,
Some uber-man I'd make,
I'm barely a vapor

They shone a chlorine light on,
A host of individual sins,
Let's carve my aging face off,
Fetch us a knife,
Start with my eyes,
Down so the lines,
Form a grimacing smile,

Close your eyes to corral a virtue,
Is this fooling anyone else?
Never worked so long and hard,
To cement a failure,

We can blow on our thumbs and posture,
But the lonely are such delicate things,
The wind from a wasp could blow them,
Into the sea,
With stones on their feet,
Lost to the light and the loving we need,

Still to come,
The worst part and you know it,
There is a numbness,
In your heart and it's growing,

With burnt sage and a forest of bygones,
I click my heels,
Get the devils in line,
A list of things I could lay the blame on,
Might give me a way out,

But with each turn,
It stays front and center,
Like a dart stuck square in your eye,
Every post you can hitch your faith on,
Is a pie in the sky,
Chock full of lies,
A tool we devise,
To make sinking stones fly,

And still to come,
The worst part and you know it,
There is a numbness,
In your heart and it's growing.

536. Com um brilhozinho nos olhos - Sérgio Godinho


Com um brilhozinho nos olhos
e a saia rodada
escancaraste a porta do bar
trazias o cabelo aos ombros
passeando de cá para lá
como as ondas do mar.
Conheço tão bem esses olhos
e nunca me enganam,
o que é que aconteceu, diz lá
é que hoje fiz um amigo
e coisa mais preciosa
no mundo não há.

Com um brilhozinho nos olhos
metemos o carro
muito à frente, muito à frente dos bois
ou seja, fizemos promessas
trocamos retratos
trocamos projectos os dois
trocamos de roupa, trocamos de corpo,
trocamos de beijos, tão bom, é tão bom
e com um brilhozinho nos olhos
tocamos guitarra
p'lo menos a julgar pelo som

E que é que foi que ele disse?
E que é que foi que ele disse?
Hoje soube-me a pouco. [x4]
passa aí mais um bocadinho
que estou quase a ficar louco
Hoje soube-me a tanto [x4]
portanto,
Hoje soube-me a pouco

Com um brilhozinho nos olhos
corremos os estores
pusemos a rádio no "on"
acendemos a já costumeira
velinha de igreja
pusemos no "off" o telefone
e olha, não dá p'ra contar
mas sei que tu sabes
daquilo que sabes que eu sei
e com um brilhozinho nos olhos
ficamos parados
depois do que não te contei

Com um brilhozinho nos olhos
dissemos, sei lá
o que nos passou pela tola [o que nos passou pelo goto]
do estilo és o "number one"
dou-te vinte valores
és um treze no totobola [és o seis do meu totoloto]
e às duas por três
bebemos um copo
fizemos o quatro e pintámos o sete
e com um brilhozinho nos olhos
ficamos imóveis
a dar uma de "tête a tête"

E que é que foi que ele disse?
...

E com um brilhozinho nos olhos
tentamos saber
para lá do que muito se amou
quem éramos nós
quem queríamos ser
e quais as esperanças
que a vida roubou
e olhei-o de longe
e mirei-o de perto
que quem não vê caras
não vê corações
com um brilhozinho nos olhos
guardei um amigo
que é coisa que vale milhões.

E que é que foi que ele disse?

535. Mímica Sísmica - Mesa


Todos os dias faço uma batalha a mim própria
Qual é a direcção a seguir e porquê?
Escolho a cabeça de dentro do armário
E saio à rua sem saber para quê

Uma é oca outra é louca
São duas pernas a baloiçar
Vários gestos, vários gestos impossíveis
Muitas bocas a sustentar

Refrão:
Mímica sísmica
Num coreto com corais
Adão é a semente
E Lisboa é dos mortais

O gato é leopardo
Aguça a ambição
Sou imparcial
Já te expliquei noutra canção


A língua é uma beleza
De intelecto e natureza
O jantar correu tão bem

O que será a sobremesa
Fios d'ovos, framboesas?
Tenho vontade indomável

Os meus dedos fazem girar o copo
E eu vejo o meu reflexo nos diversos cristais

Os meus dedos fazem girar o copo


Refrão


Mímica sísmica
Aguça a ambição
Sou imparcial
Já te expliquei noutra canção
(x3)

Um gesto impossível
De dentro do armário
Adopto os fantasmas
Ao meu dicionário

Aguça a ambição
Aguça a ambição

534. Islands on the coast - Band of Horses


Here's a copy,
of a lesson you know,
and put the kind words to bed.

For man don't say why,
or even know how,
it's only awful as
the hell that you know.

Islands on the coast,
Islands on the coast of your heart
yeah, of your heart.

And only hours before
the house had burned down,
he shut the other door.

But if i don't see now,
or even know why,
it's only awful
as the hell that you know.

Islands on the coast,
Islands on the coast of your heart,
yeah, of your heart.

Home (x4).

He was writing in
the lesson you know,
let's take the other door.

Now if i don't think right,
or even know how,
it's only awful
as the hell that you know.

Islands on the coast,

533. Evil - Interpol


Rosemary
Heaven restores you in life
You're coming with me
Through the aging, the fearing, the strife
It's the smiling on the package
It's the faces in the sand
It's the thought that moves you upwards
Embracing me with two hands
Right will take you places
Yeah maybe to the beach
When your friends they do come crying
Tell them now your pleasure's set upon slow-release

Hey wait
Great smile
sensitive to fate not
Denial
But hey who's on trial?

It took a life spent with no cellmate
The long way back
Saying, "hey why can't we look the other way?"

we speaks about travel
Yeah, we think about the land
We smart like all peoples
Feeling real tan
I could take you places
Do you need a new man?
Wipe the pollen from the faces
Make revision to a dream while you wait in the van

Hey wait
Great smile
sensitive to fate not
Denial
But hey who's on trial?

It took a life spent with no cellmate
To find the long way back
Saying, "hey why can't we look the other way?"
You're weightless, you are exotic
You need something for which to care
Saying, "hey why can't we look the other way?"

Some shards under the belly
Lay some grease inside my hand
It's a sentimental jury
And the makings of a good plan
You've come to love me lightly
Yeah you've come to hold me tight
Is this motion everlasting
Or do shutters pass in the night?

Rosemary
Oh heaven restores you in life
I spent a lifespan with no cellmate
The long way back
Saying, "hey why can't we look the other way?"
You're weightless, semi-erotic
You need someone to take you there
Saying, "hey why can't we look the other way?"
Why can't we just play the other game?
Why can't we just look the other way?

532. A cry for love - David Fonseca


No one can love me the way that you do
Yeah, i was the captain of my own ship of fools
I fled to the ocean, i aimed for the stars
So your face was a light that kept me saved from the dark
So i say please, say please

Girl you see me smiling
Girl i'm singing words of joy to the world
Between the lines it's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love

I jumped to the water, i swam to the shore
Turned up at your doorstep, i slept on your floor
I woke up in panic, i dreamt you were gone
You're gone, you're gone
I stood there in silence with the damaged i've done
But now it's done, it's done so

Girl you see me smiling
Girl i'm singing words of joy to the world
Between the lines it's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love

I'll keep on smiling
Girl i'll keep on playing my songs to the world
Between the lines it's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love
A cry for love
A cry for love
A cry for love

Girl you see me smiling
Girl i'm singing words of joy to the world
Between the lines it's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love
I'll keep on smiling

Girl i'll keep on playing my songs to the world
Between the lines it's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love
You can see the smile
Can't you see the cry for love
It's hidden in the smile
Can't you hear a cry for love

531. Please be patient with me - Wilco




"There's parts of your life you go through, you just don't know where you are.
It can be anywhere and anything can be happening, and hopefully you wake up
with somebody that you can trust next to you and they've been there."


I should warn you
When I'm not well
I can't tell
Oh, there's nothing I can do
To make this easier for you

You're gonna need to be patient with me

I'm this apple, this happening stone
When I'm alone
Oh, but my blessings get so blurred
At the sound of your words

I'm gonna need you to be patient with me

How can I warn you when my tongue turns to dust
Like we've discussed
It doesn't mean that I don't care
It means I'm partially there

You're gonna need to be patient with me

530. Down is the new up - Thom Yorke


Get yourself together
Let the light pour in
Pour yourself a hot bath, pour yourself a drink
Nothing's gonna happen without a warning
Down is the new up
What is up, buttercup
Down is the new up, is the new up

Your services are not required
Your future's bleak, you're so last week

Ladies and gentlemen, without a safety net
I shall now perform a 180 flip-flop
I shall now amputate, I shall now contort
Because down is the new up
What if I just flip-flopped?
Down is the new up
Down is the new up
Down is the new up, is the new up

You're on Candid Camera
The chink in your armor
Topsy turvy town, topsy turvy town
Shake your pockets out
Pass it on, pass it down
Topsy turvy town, topsy turvy town

529. Black rainbow - St. Vincent



There's a black rainbow upon my house
Match the curtains and the floors
Think I'm glass I think I'm breaking it
Wrecking ball outside the door

Let the children act like furniture
For the ladies of the lawn
But I can't see them, I can't see at all
It's night time all the time

Bird outside the kitchen, fighting his reflection
Tell him I got nothing for him
Bird outside the kitchen, fighting his reflection
What's he gonna win when he wins?

Unkissed boys and girls of paradise
Lining up around the block
Back pockets full of dynamite
While neighbors talk and talk and talk

Bird outside the kitchen fighting his reflection
Tell him I got nothing for him
Bird outside the kitchen fighting his reflection
What's he gonna win when he wins?

Throw the phone out the window
If you want the neighbors woke
You'll have to shout out loud
And set the bell and slow
If you want the neighbors woke
You'll have to shout even louder

528. Perdóname - Pablo Alborán & Carminho



Si alguna vez preguntas el por que...
No sabre decirte la razón
Yo no la se
Por eso y mas
Perdóname...!!

Si alguna vez maldicen nuestro amor
Comprenderé tu corazón
Tu no me entenderás
Por eso y mas
Perdóname..!!

Uuuna sola palabra mas
No mas besos al alba
Ni una sola caricia abra
Esto se acaba aquí
No hay manera ni forma
De decir que si (2x)

Si alguna vez
Creíste que por ti
O por tu culpa me marche
No fuiste tu
Por eso y mas
Perdóname..!!

Si alguna vez te hice sonreír
Creistes poco a poco en mi
Fui yo lo se
Por eso y mas
Perdóname..!

Uuuna sola palabra mas
No mas besos al alba
Ni una sola caricia abra
Esto se acaba aquí
No hay manera ni forma
De decir que si (2x)

Siento volverte loca
Darte el veneno de mi boca
Siento tener que irme así
Sin decirte adiós (2x)

Laralalalaralalarala
Laralaalala
Lalalalara

Uuuna sola palabra mas
No mas besos al alba
Ni una sola caricia abra
Esto se acaba aquí
No hay manera ni forma
De decir que si

527. Say yes - Elliott Smith


I'm in love with the world through the eyes of a girl
Who's still around the morning after
We broke up a month ago, and I grew up - but didn't know
I'd be around the morning after

It's always been wait and see
A happy day and then you pay
and feel like shit the morning after
But now I feel changed around and instead of falling down
I'm standing up the morning after
Situations get fucked up and turned around sooner or later
I could be another fool or an exception to the rule
You tell me the morning after

Crooked spin can't come to rest
I damaged bad at best
She'll decide what she wants
I'll probably be the last to know
No-one says until it shows and you see how it is
They want you or they don't
Say yes

I'm in love with the world through the eyes of a girl
Who's still around the morning after

526. Silence - Portishead


"Esteja alerta para a regra dos três.
O que você dá retornará para você.
Essa lição você tem que aprender.
Você só ganha o que você merece."

Tempted in our minds
Tormented inside lie
Wounded and afraid
Inside my head
Falling through changes

Did you know when you lost?
Did you know when I wanted?
Did you know what I lost?
Do you know what I wanted?

Empty in our hearts
Crying out in silence
Wandered out of reach
Too far to speak
Drifting unable

Did you know when you lost?
Did you know when I wanted?
Did you know what I lost?
Do you know what I wanted?

525. Shake it out - Florence and the Machine



Regrets collect like old friends
Here to relive your darkest moments
I can see no way, I can see no way
And all of the ghouls come out to play

And every demon wants his pound of flesh
But I like to keep some things to myself
I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn

And I've been a fool and I've been blind
I can never leave the past behind
I can see no way, I can see no way
I'm always dragging that horse around

And our love is pastured such a mournful sound
Tonight I'm gonna bury that horse in the ground
So I like to keep my issues strong
But it's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaaah

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah

I am done with my graceless heart
So tonight I'm gonna cut it out and then restart
Cause I like to keep my issues strong
It's always darkest before the dawn

Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah

And given half the chance would I take any of it back
It's a final mess but it's left me so empty
It's always darkest before the dawn

Oh woah, oh woah...

And I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
So here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my road
And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope
It's a shot in the dark and right at my throat
Cause looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Looking for heaven, for the devil in me
Well what the hell I'm gonna let it happen to me

Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah
Shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, shake it out, ooh woaaah

And it's hard to dance with a devil on your back
So shake him off, oh woah

524. Vou ser alguem - Maria Clementina



Quando eu nascer vou ser do bem
Quando eu quiser vou ser alguém
Vou me libertar largando o chão
Para poder subir ao meu verão
Então, meu bem, vou ser alguém


Quando eu nascer vais ver, meu bem
Quem me encontrar vai querer sorrir
Quem me descobrir vai querer ficar
Vou fazer feliz o mundo vão
Então, meu bem, vou ser alguém


Meu sopro aquece a água fria
Meu nome para abraçar o dia
Maria Clementina

523. Because - The Beatles





Because the world is round it turns me on
Because the world is round...aaaaaahhhhhh

Because the wind is high it blows my mind
Because the wind is high......aaaaaaaahhhh

Love is old, love is new
Love is all, love is you

Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry
Because the sky is blue.......aaaaaaaahhhh

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh....

522. The cigarette duet - Princess Chelsea



It's just a cigarette & it cannot be that bad
Honey don't you love me and you know it makes me sad?
It's just a cigarette like you always used to do
I was different then, I don't need them to be cool

It's just a cigarette and it harms your pretty lungs
Well it's only twice a week so there's not much of a chance
It's just a cigarette it'll soon be only ten
Honey can't you trust me when I want to stop I can

It's just a cigarette and it's just a Malboro Light
Maybe but is it worth it if we fight?
It's just a cigarette that I got from Jamie-Lee
She's gonna get a smack and I'm gonna give you three

It's just a cigarette and I only did it once
it's only twice a week so there's not much of a chance
It's just a cigarette and I'm sorry that I did it
Honey can't you trust me when I want to stop I can

521. Marathon - Tennis



Coconut Grove
Is a very small cove
separated from the sea
by a shifting shoal
we didn't realize that
we had arrived
at high tide, high tide
barely made it out alive

red over white
fishermen working at night
not even once
did we see a light
we didn't realize
the forecast had been revised
by moonless skies and
shifty wind that gusts and dies

on the sand our keel is heaving
but tonight we've got to be leaving
travel through the day and into the evening

Marathon how long we've been gone
and still not yet set foot upon you

your low lying shore opens welcomingly
to one who's spent the night at sea
Adrift in the shallows, a modest repose
adorn with coral, your bright colors show
ushered in through a bridge that is never closed.

520. Handbags & the gladrags - Rod Stewart





Ever seen a blind man cross the road
Trying to make the other side?
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Trying to make herself a bride?

So what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Once I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile
Well you are still a young girl
And you've bought everything in style

So once you think you're in you're out
'Cause you don't mean a single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
And drink a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake 'em all in a pie

They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy

They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

519. Angel in the snow - Elliott Smith



I'd say you make a perfect
angel in the snow
all crushed out on the way you are
better stop before it goes too far
don't you know that i love you
sometimes i feel like only a cold still life
that fell down here to lay beside you

don't you know that i love you
sometimes i feel like only a cold still life
only a frozen still life
that fell down here to lay beside you

518. A pele que há em mim - Márcia



Quando o dia entardeceu
E o teu corpo tocou
Num recanto do meu
Uma dança acordou
E o sol apareceu
De gigante ficou
Num instante apagou
O sereno do céu

E a calma a aguardar lugar em mim
O desejo a contar segundo o fim.
Foi num ar que te deu
E o teu canto mudou
E o teu corpo do meu
Uma trança arrancou
O sangue arrefeceu
E o meu pé aterrou
Minha voz sussurrou
O meu sonho morreu

Dá-me o mar, o meu rio, minha calçada.
Dá-me o quarto vazio da minha casa
Vou deixar-te no fio da tua fala.
Sobre a pele que há em mim
Tu não sabes nada.

Quando o amor se acabou
e o meu corpo esqueceu
o caminho onde andou
nos recantos do teu
e o luar se apagou
e a noite emudeceu
o frio fundo do céu
foi descendo e ficou

Mas a mágoa não mora mais em mim
Já passou, desgastei, para lá do fim
É preciso partir,
É o preço do amor
Para voltar a viver
Já nem sinto o sabor
A suor e pavor
Do teu colo a ferver
Do teu sangue de flor
Já não quero saber

Dá-me o mar, o meu rio, a minha estrada
O meu barco vazio na madrugada
Vou deixar-te no frio da tua fala.
Na vertigem da voz quando enfim se cala.

517. Não venhas tarde - Carlos Ramos



Não venhas tarde!,
Dizes-me tu com carinho,
Sem nunca fazer alarde
Do que me pedes, baixinho.

Não venhas tarde!,
E eu peço a deus que no fim
Teu coração ainda guarde
Um pouco de amor por mim.

Tu sabes bem
Que eu vou p'ra outra mulher,
Que ela me prende também,
Que eu só faço o que ela quer,
Tu estás sentindo
Que te minto e sou cobarde,
Mas sabes dizer, sorrindo,
Meu amor, não venhas tarde!

Não venhas tarde!,
Dizes-me sem azedume,
Quando o teu coração arde
Na fogueira do ciúme.

Não venhas tarde!,
Dizes-me tu da janela,
E eu venho sempre mais tarde,
Porque não sei fugir dela

Tu sabes bem
Que eu vou p'ra outra mulher,
Que ela me prende também,
Que eu só faço o que ela quer,

Sem alegria,
Eu confesso, tenho medo,
Que tu me digas um dia,
Meu amor, não venhas cedo!

Por ironia,
Pois nunca sei onde vais,
Que eu chegue cedo algum dia,
E seja tarde demais!

516. Go slowly - Radiohead



Oh Maria
Come slowly
Come slowly to me
I've been waiting
Patient
Patiently

I didn't know it
But now I can see
That there's a way out

That there's a way out
That there's a way out
That there's a way out

515. C'mere - Interpol





It's way too late to be this locked inside ourselves
The trouble is that you're in love with someone else
It should be me. Oh, it should be me
Sacred parts, your get aways
You come along on summer days
Tenderly, tastefully

And so may, we make time
Try to find somebody else
This place is mine

You said today, you know exactly how I feel
I had my doubts little girl
I'm in love with something real
It could be me, that's changing!

And so may, we make time
To try and find somebody else
Who has a line

Now season with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long ending fast

Oh, how I love you
And in the evening, when we are sleeping
We are sleeping. Oh, we are sleeping

And so may, we make time
We try to find somebody else
Who has a line

Now season with health
Two lovers walk a lakeside mile
Try pleasing with stealth, rodeo
See what stands long ending fast

514. Try it on - Interpol



I need the sun light
To keep me above you
These moderations
I always hoped for
Did all this work for
Some piece of mind just because
On this side
You wanna see that
There's no change
And somewhere to stay
But if your right
I'll put my keys back
There's no change
And no hand to play

Please explore my loves endurance
And stay, stay
Please endure my loves exploitations
No way, no fucking way no
On this side
You wanna see that there's no change
And somewhere to stay
On this side
Your gonna see that there's no change
And nowhere to stay

Try it on

On this side
Your gonna see that there's no change
And nowhere to stay
But if your right
I'll put my keys back
There's no change
And nowhere to stay
There's nowhere to stay

513. Se por acaso(me vires por aí) - J.P. Simões


Se por acaso me vires por aí
Disfarça, finge não ver
Diz que não pode ser, diz que morri
Num acidente qualquer
Conta o quanto quiseste fazer
Exalta a tua versão
Depois suspira e diz que esquecer
É a tua profissão

E ouve-se ao fundo uma linda canção
De paz e amor

Se por acaso me vires por aí
Vamos tomar um café
Diz qualquer coisa, telefona, enfim
Eu ainda moro na Sé
Encaixotei uns papeis e não sei
Se hei-de deitar tudo fora
Tenho uma série de cartas para ti
Todas de uma tal de Dora

E ouvem-se ao fundo canções tão banais
De paz e amor
Se eu por acaso te vir por aí
Passo sem sequer te ver
Naturalmente que já te esqueci
E tenho mais que fazer
Quero que saibas que cago no amor
Acho que fui sempre assim
Espero que encontres tudo o que quiseres
E vás para longe de mim

E ouve-se ao fundo uma velha canção
De paz e amor

Na sexta-feira acho que te vi
À frente da Brasileira
Era na certa o teu fato azul
E a pasta em tons de madeira
O Tó talvez queira te conhecer
Nunca falei mal de ti
A vida passa e era bom saber
Que estás em forma e feliz

E ouve-se ao fundo uma triste canção
De paz e amor.

512. This old heart of mine - Isley Brothers



Ooh, this old heart of mine, been broken thousand times
Each time you break away, I fear you're gone to stay
Lonely nights that come, memories that go
Bringing you back again, hurting me more and more

Maybe it's my mistake
To show this love I feel inside
'Cause each day that passes by
You've got me never knowing if I'm coming or going but I

I love you
This is old heart, darling is weak for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do

These old arms of mine
Miss having you around
Makes these tears inside
Start pouring down

Always with half a kiss
You remind me of what I miss
Though I try to control myself
Like a fool I start grinnin' 'cause my head starts spinnin' 'cause I

I love you
This is old heart, darling is weak for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do

Ooh, I try hard to hide, my hurt inside
This old heart of mine always keeps me cryin'
The way you're treating me, leaves me incomplete
You're here for the day, gone for the week now

But if you leave me a hundred times
A hundred times I'll take you back
I'm yours whenever you want me
I'm not too proud to shout it, tell the world about it 'cause I

I love you
This is old heart, darling is weak for you
I love you
This is old heart, darling is weak for you

I love you
This is old heart, darling is weak for you
I love you, yes I do, yes I do
I love you, yes I do, darling is weak for you

511. Big wave - Jenny and Johnny



Living your life in the gray
Is the new American way
We're spending what we haven't made

And we save our money in good faith
And we work hard for our living wage
But still the banks got to break

Because the dream's a lie
And the snake, it bit you
When you were awake
And the books all fried
You are bankrupting
Because all the loans you take

Big wave, do do do
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
It's going to hit you with a big wave

I can't sleep these days
And my blues, they won't go away
So there are these little pills I been taking
And my doctor, she says that they're safe
But I been sleepwalking down to the lake
And waking up in the water

And the feeling's a lie
But the snake, it bit me
When I wasn't awake
And the scripts, they lie
I have been poisoned from
All the things I take

Big wave, do do do
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
It's going to hit me with a big wave
Big wave, do do do
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
It's going to hit you with a big wave

I know you feel deprived
(You don't trust me)
All of us still alive
(You never touch me)
It's really just that I don't feel
Like it much these days

And my love's a lie
Because the snake, he visits me
When you are away
And your dreams don't lie
I have been corrupted
Because all the lovers I take

Big wave, do do do
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
You're going to hit me with a big wave
Big wave, do do do
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
It's going to hit you with a big wave

Big wave, da da da
Big wave, do do do
Big wave
It's going to hit you with a big wave

510. Veio a Maria Clementina - Maria Clementina



Como se colhe uma mulher?
Nem sempre é touro p’ra colher
E o matador que há em mim
Não bandarilha num jardim.
Ser pegador tão floreado
Não faz que eu seja bom forcado.
Se da plateia vêm flores
A cada "Olé" eu sinto dores.
Foi-se esta veia assassina
Veio a Maria Clementina.

Como se apanha um coração
Sem dar o nosso por caução?
O caçador que há em mim
Não se deixa abater assim
Mas p’lo disparo sem certeza
Ricocheteia a Natureza.
Se da culatra vêm flores
Eu digo ais mas não de dores.
Um tiro errado não se ensina;
Veio a Maria Clementina.

Como se cala uma cantiga
Sem trautear quanto isso obriga?
O surdo-mudo que há em mim
Já ouve o anunciado fim.
De tão cinzenta previsão
Alaranjou-se-me a intenção.
Se te amordaço e dás-me flores
Que me castiguem justas dores.
Foi-se esta predatória sina;
Veio a Maria Clementina.

509. Fabulous places - Sammy Davis Jr.



There are so many fabulous faraway places to see!
Such as Mexico, Sweden, Hawaii, Japan and Capri!
There are so many exciting and wonderful places!
Mountains and jungles, deserts and oases!
Pleasant as home is,
It isn't what Rome is!
So why stay there?
When there are so many fabulous faraway places to see!
Why should Spain and Tahiti and Rio
Just be only names to you and me?
I feel certain there are people
We'd be glad to know there!
So tell me why don't we get up and go there?
Go to those fabulous places we're longing to be?
Go to Bangkok and Hong Kong and Paris and Venice!
Tokyo and Cairo and Lisbon and London!
Wonderful fabulous places we're longing to see!

I'd give anything just to have one single day there!
And once we get there,
I know that we'll stay there!
Stay in those fabulous places
We're longing to be!
Such as Siam! Sienna! Vienna! Verona!
Java! Jamaica! Bombay! Barcelona!
Show me those fabulous places
We're longing to see!
Longing to see!
Longing to see!
Just you and me

508. We'll meet again - Vera Lynn



We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do
'Till the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away

So, will you please say hello
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day
Keep smiling through
Just like you always do
'Till the blue skies
Drive the dark clouds far away

So, will you please say hello
To the folks that I know
Tell them I won't be long
They'll be happy to know
That as you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again
Don't know where
Don't know when
But I know we'll meet again
Some sunny day...

507. Moves like Jagger - Maroon 5





Just shoot for the stars, if it feels right
Then aim for my heart, if you feel like
Can take me away, and make it okay
I swear I'll behave

You wanted control, so we waited
I put on a show, now I make it
You say I'm a kid, my ego is big
I don't give a shit

Kiss me 'til you're drunk

When you feel like you're broken and scarred
Nothing feels right
But when you're with me
I make you believe
That I've got the key

Oh, so get in the car
We can ride it wherever you want
Get inside it
And you want to steer
But I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here
Oh yeah, yeah
And it goes like this

Take me by the tongue
And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger

Nobody else can see this

Head to toe, oh baby, rub me right
But if I share my secret
You gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
Hey, yeah yeah

And it goes like this

And I'll know you
Kiss me 'til you're drunk
And I'll show you

Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With the moves like Jagger

506. Dead and lovely - Tom Waits



She was a middle class girl
She was in over her head
She thought she would
Stand up in the deep end

He had a bullet proof smile
He had money to burn
She thought she had the moon
In her pocket

But now she's dead
She's so dead
Forever dead and lovely now

I've always been told to
Remember this...
Don't let a fool kiss you
Never marry for love

He was hard to impress
He knew everyone's secrets
He wore her on his arm
Just like jewelry

He never gave but he got
He kept her on a leash
He's not the kind of wheel
You fall asleep at

But now she's dead
Forever dead
Forever dead and lovely now

Come closer, look deeper
You've fallen fast
Just like a plane on a
Stormy sea

She made up someone to be
She made up somewhere to be from
This is one business in the
World where that's no
Problem at all

Everything that is left
They will only plow under
Soon every one you know
Will be gone

And now she's dead
Forever dead
Forever dead and lovely now

Now she's dead
Forever dead
Forever dead and lovely now

I've always been told to
Remember this...
Don't let a kiss fool you
Never marry for love

Everything has its price [2x]
What's more romantic
Then dying in the moonlight?

Now they're all watching the sea
What's lost can never be broken
Her roots were sweet
But they were so shallow

And now she's dead
Forever dead
Forever dead and lovely now

And now she's dead
Forever dead
And she's so dead and lovely now

505. Ruby tuesday - Rolling Stones



She would never say where she came from
Yesterday don't matter if it's gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

Don't question why she needs to be so free
Shell tell you it's the only way to be
She just can't be chained
To a life where nothing's gained
And nothing's lost
At such a cost

There's no time to lose, I heard her say
Catch your dreams before they slip away
Dying all the time
Lose your dreams
And you will lose your mind.
Ain't life unkind?

Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still I'm gonna miss you...

504. Blue spotted tail - Fleet Foxes





Why in the night sky are the lights on?
Why is the earth moving round the sun?
Floating in the vacuum with no purpose, not a one
Why in the night sky are the lights on?

Why is life made only for to end?
Why do I do all this waiting then?
Why this frightened part of me that's fated to pretend?
Why is life made only for to end?

In the city only for a while
Here to face the fortune and the bile
I heard you on the radio, I couldn't help but smile
In the city only for a while

Why in the night sky are the lights on?
Why is the earth moving round the sun?
Floating in the vacuum with no purpose, not a one
Why in the night sky are the lights on?

503. A feast of friends - The Doors



Wow, I'm sick of doubt
Live in the light of certain
South
Cruel bindings.
The servants have the power
dog-men and their mean women
pulling poor blankets over
our sailors

I'm sick of dour faces
Staring at me from the TV
Tower, I want roses in
my garden bower; dig?
Royal babies, rubies
must now replace aborted
Strangers in the mud
These mutants, blood-meal
for the plant that's plowed.

They are waiting to take us into
the severed garden
Do you know how pale and wanton thrillful
comes death on a strange hour
unannounced, unplanned for
like a scaring over-friendly guest you've
brought to bed
Death makes angels of us all
and gives us wings
where we had shoulders
smooth as raven's
claws

No more money, no more fancy dress
This other kingdom seems by far the best
until it's other jaw reveals incest
and loose obedience to a vegetable law.

I will not go
Prefer a Feast of Friends
To the Giant Family.

502. With my own two hands - Ben Harper



I can change the world
With my own two hands
Make a better place
With my own two hands
Make a kinder place
With my own two hands
With my own
With my own two hands
I can make peace on earth
With my own two hands
I can clean up the earth
With my own two hands
I can reach out to you
With my own two hands
With my own
With my own two hands

I’m gonna make it a brighter place
I’m gonna make it a safer place
I’m gonna help the human race
With my own
With my own two hands

I can hold you
With my own two hands
I can comfort you
With my own two hands
But you got to use
Use your own two hands
Use your own
Use your own two hands

With our own
With our own two hands
With my own
With my own two hands

501. Objects of my affection - Peter, Bjorn & John



I remember when, when I first moved here
a long time ago,
cause I heard some song I used to hear back then
a long time ago.
I remember when even further back in another town
cause I saw something written I used to say back then
how to comprehend.
And the question is was I more alive than right now?
I happily have to disagree
I laugh more often now
I cry more often now
I am more me.
But of course somedays I just lie around
and hardly exist
and can't tell apart what I'm eating
from my hand or my wrist.
Cause flesh is flesh, flesh is flesh is flesh
the difference is thin
but life has a certain ability of breathing new life into me
so I breathe it in
it tells me here you are and here all you are here
and still can make sense
if you just show up and present an honest face
instead of that grin.
And the question is was I more alive than right now?
I happily have to disagree
I laugh more often now
I cry more often now
I am more me.
The other day this new friend of mine
said something to me,
"Just because something starts differently
Doesn't mean it's worth less."
And I soaked it in, how I soaked it in
How I soaked it in
And just asked to prove how right he was
Then you came.
So I'm gonna give, yes I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give you a try
So I'm gonna give, yes I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give you a try
And the question is was I more alive than right now?
I happily have to disagree
I laugh more often now
I cry more often now
I am more me.

500. The scent of love - Michael Nyman

499. Rolling in the deep - Adele



There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare

See how I'll leave, with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared

The scars of your love remind you of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
But you played it with a beating

Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
And you played it to the beat

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
Could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul in your hand
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
But you played it, you played it, you played it to the beat

498. Hurt - Christina Aguilera



Seems like it was yesterday when I saw your face
You told me how proud you were but I walked away
If only I'd known what I know today

I would hold you in my arms
I would take the pain away
Thank you for all you've done
Forgive all your mistakes
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To hear your voice again
Sometimes I want to call you but I know you won't be there

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself by hurting you
Some days I feel broke inside but I won't admit
Sometimes I just want to hide 'cause it's you I miss
You know it's so hard to say goodbye when it comes to this

Would you tell me I was wrong?
Would you help me understand?
Are you looking down upon me?
Are you proud of who I am?
There's nothing I wouldn't do
To have just one more chance
To look into your eyes and see you looking back

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself
If I had just one more day, I would tell you how much that
I've missed you since you've been away

Oh, it's dangerous
It's so out of line to try to turn back time

I'm sorry for blaming you for everything I just couldn't do
And I've hurt myself

By hurting you

497. Tomo conta desta tua casa - Virgem Suta



Tomo conta desta tua casa
Imprópria para amar, sei lá porquê
Não consigo agarrar o que me resta
Pedaços do que foste, e ninguém vê

Rendido ao teu sofá, nele me encontro
Repouso agora em sono mal dormido
Pretendo esclarecer o desencontro
Do nosso amor que há muito anda perdido

Eu sei
Que não é fácil conversar nem decidir
Nem tudo é falso e sem cor vamos mentir
Que a perversão será ainda mais real

Eu sei
Que não é fácil conversar nem decidir
Nem tudo é falso e sem cor vamos mentir
Que a perversão será ainda mais real

A leve embriaguez passa a febre
Num quente desconforto de um mendigo
Que aguarda numa esperança duvidosa
O gesto carinhoso de um abrigo

Pensar, sentir, querer, é tão confuso
A sensação da dor está revelada
Agora o que fazemos de nós dois?
Vivemos como se não fosse nada

Eu sei
Que não é fácil conversar nem decidir
Nem tudo é falso e sem cor vamos mentir
Que a perversão será ainda mais real

Eu sei
Que não é fácil conversar nem decidir
Nem tudo é falso e sem cor vamos mentir
Que a perversão será ainda mais real

496. Keep the car running - The Arcade Fire



Every night my dream’s the same
The same old city with a different name
Men are coming to take me away I don’t know why but I know I can’t stay

There’s a weight that’s pressing down
Late at night you can hear the sound
Even the noise you make when you sleep
Can’t swim across a river so deep

They know my name ‘cause I told it to them
But they don’t know where and they don’t know when
It’s coming
When it’s coming

There’s this fear I keep so deep
Knew its name just before I could speak,yeh
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh

They know my name ‘cause I told it to them
But they don’t know where and they don’t know when
It’s coming, oh when?
But it’s coming, keep the car running

If some night I don’t come home
Please don’t think I’ve left you alone
The same place animals go when they die
You can’t climb across a mountain so high
The same city where I go when I sleep
Can’t swim across a river so deep

They know my name ‘cause I told it to them
But they don’t know where and they don’t know when
It’s coming, oh when?
Is it coming Keep the car running
Keep the car running
Keep the car running

495. A máquina - Amor Electro



Saber o que fazer,
Com isto a acontecer,

Num caso como o meu.
Ter o meu amor,
Para dar e pra vender,
Mas sei que vou ficar,
Por ter o que eu não tenho,
Eu sei que vou ficar.


É de pedir aos céus,
A mim, a ti e a Deus,
Que eu quero ser feliz.


É de pedir aos céus.
Porque este amor é meu,
E cedo, vou saber
Que triste é viver,


Que sina, ai, que amor,
Já nem vou mais chorar,
Gritar, ligar, voltar,
A máquina parou,
Deixou de tocar.


Sentir e não mentir,
Amar e querer ficar,
Que pena é ver-te assim,
Já sem saberes de ti.


Rasguei o teu perdão,
Quis ser o que já fui,
Eu não vou mais fugir,
A viagem começou.


Porque este amor é meu
E cedo vou saber,
Que triste é viver,
Que sina, ai, que amor.
Já nem vou mais chorar,
Gritar, ligar, voltar,
A máquina parou..
Deixou de tocar.


É de pedir aos céus,
A mim, a ti e a Deus,
Que eu quero é ser feliz,
É de pedir aos céus.


Porque este amor é teu,
E eu já só vou amar,
Que bom não acabou,
A máquina acordou

494. Love lost - The Temper Trap


Our love was lost
But now we've found it
Our love was lost
And hope was gone

Our love was lost
But now we've found it
And if you flash your heart
I won't deny it
I promise

I promise

Your walls are up
Too cold to touch it
Your walls are up
Too high to climb

I know it's hard
But i can still hear it beating
So if you flash your heart
I won't mistreat it
I promise

Our love was lost
In the rubble are all the things
That you've, you've been dreaming of
Keep me in mind
When you're ready
I am here
To take you every time

Oh our love was lost
Lost, lost, lost, lost....
Our love was lost
But now its found

493. Breathe me - Sia



Help, I have done it again
I have been here many times before
Hurt myself again today
And, the worst part is there's no-one else to blame

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found,
Yeah I think that I might break
I've lost myself again and I feel unsafe

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

Be my friend
Hold me, wrap me up
Unfold me
I am small
I'm needy
Warm me up
And breathe me

492. Empty happy song - Silence 4



Being alone I've been alone
So gone so long that I got tired of it
There's something wrong I can't recall the last
The first time that I felt happy

So you come up with this song
To sing along and make us all pretty
My love will never let me go

So I'll just get back on the world today
I'll find a meaning and a way to feel
Brighter than the sun

Another pill tells me I'm strong
So strong so wrong to still believe in it
Whatever I need I need to believe
My faith is weak and gets me even more sick

So you come up with this song
To fool your heart and blind it till you can't see
How long have you been this gone

So I'll just grab some words to say
Without a meaning
Just a way of forgetting that I'm all alone

Like a new year's eve party
Where I am obliged to be happy
May the new year come with a song
An empty happy song
To make my life so right for me

So you come up
With this song to shout and force yourself to believe
Though we all know you're not that strong

Tired of so much pain
Of living in this cloud of rain
I need something to go on

I've ran out of anesthetics
I'm becoming so pathetic
If you got nothing to hang on
You're not alone

Live die cry tonight
Let tears fall down your face and laugh
Don't waste your last words on sorrow
Live like there is no tomorrow
And may we all be one
In this song
An empty happy song
To keep us smiling instantly
Become what we would like to be
Indulge ourselves to believe
And though we'll never ever be
We'll pretend that we all can be
Free

491. Monochrome - Yann Tiersen

~

Anyway, I can try
Anything it's the same circle
That leads to nowhere and I'm tired now.

Anyway, I've lost my face,
My dignity, my look,
Everything is gone
And I'm tired now.

But don't be scared,
I found a good job and I go to work
Every day on my old bicycle you loved.

I am pilling up some unread books under my bed
And I really think I'll never read again.

No concentration,
Just a white disorder
Everywhere around me,
You know I'm so tired now.

But don't worry
I often go to dinners and parties
With some old friends who care for me,
Take me back home and stay.

Monochrome floors, monochrome walls,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.
Monochrome flat, monochrome life,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.

Sometimes I search an event
Or something to remind,
But I've really got nothing in mind.

Sometimes I open the windows
And listen people walking in the down streets.
There is a life out there.

But don't be scared,
I found a good job and I go to work
Every day on my old bicycle you loved.

Anyway, I can try
Anything it's the same circle
That leads to nowhere and I'm tired now.

Anyway, I've lost my face,
My dignity, my look,
Everything is gone
And I'm tired now.

But don't worry
I often go to dinners and parties
With some old friends who care for me,
Take me back home and stay.

Monochrome floors, monochrome walls,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me.

Monochrome flat, monochrome life,
Only absence near me,
Nothing but silence around me

490. Talk to me - Yodelice





Something just changed in your soul
Tell me baby what’s wrong
What’s going on
Have you been crying

Something just flaked in your eyes
There’s a crack in your gaze
Like those broken days
Am i seeing things...

Talk to me
Talk to me
Baby talk it’s me
Talk to me

Something got hold of your soul
You’re like never before
Is there something more
Have i missed anything.

Seems like the sun is shining
On everyone but me
Won’t you talk to me
This is getting scary

Baby talk to me
Please talk to me
Baby talk it’s me
Talk to me

Something just changed in my world
And it's killing me

488. Long slow goodbye - Queens of the Stone Age



Where have you gone again my sweet?
Everybody wants to know
Where have you gone again my sweet?
Everybody wants to know
Where you've gone?

I'm just a ghost, i'm on your street
Waitin', when you comin' home?
I'm just a ghost, i'm on your street
Waitin', when you comin' home?
Gone so long
Where you've gone?

On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...

In every voice, i hear you speak
Waitin' by the telephone
I close my eyes, i just can't sleep
Roll & tumble all night long
All night long
Where you gone?

The long slow goodbye?
The long slow goodbye...
On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...

I close my eyes, i just can't sleep
Where have you gone again my sweet?

On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...
On a long slow goodbye?
On a long slow goodbye...

Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

487. Magic doors - Portishead



I can't deny what I've become
I'm just emotionally undone
I can't deny I can't be someone else

When I have tried to find the words
To describe this sense absurd
Try to resist my thoughts but I can't lie

I'm losing myself
My desire I can't hide
No reason am I for

I can't divide or hide from me
I don't know who I'm meant to be
I guess it's just the person that I am

Often I've dreamt that I'd awake
Enjoy the gift of my mistake
But yet again, I'm wrong and I confess

I'm losing myself
My desire I can't hide
No reason am I for

I'm losing myself
My desire I can't hide
No reason am I for

486. Open your mind - Wilco



I would throw myself underneath the wheels of any train of thought
roaming the rails or sailing through the roadways of your brain
If I could bring a light to shine upon the dark and disobey
the night so young, but I still say we're too old for clichés
Oh, and I can only dream of the dreams we'd share if you were so inclined
I would love to be the one to open up your mind

I could base my whole existence upon the cherry strains of your gold hair
and I would ask, almost insist upon treating you kind and fair
Oh, I could only dream of the dreams we'd have, how our hearts would be intwined
if you would let me be the one to open up your mind

I'd still be myself beneath the banks unbroken beside the stream
Ready to return your thoughts unlearned so it goes, so it seems
Oh, I could only dream of the dreams we'd share if you weren't so refined
I would love to be the one to open up your mind

485. Happy alone - Kings of Leon



On our way, so it seems, blooming flowers waltz before me
Rollin' numbers, passing time, got to get outside the city,
In the morning all will see, just how crazy young love can be
On our own away again, don't get down my darlin'

I'm gonna tangle my face hair, it's gonna tickle your daughter
3 o'clock in the morning, they all cry to me,
I'll be prancin' around in my high heels, and your cherry red lipstick,
Look out your window i'm on your street

Miles away, so unclear, almost lost it in Montana
Lets pull over, have us a choke
I love to watch you when your dancin'
I wonder if they ever dream, they would get just what we gave them
All wrapped up in being 19, chasin' stars that are fallin'

Chorus

When that train heads home,
They're gonna be so gone gone, you aint never gonna see me
Im a gone gone, you aint nothin to me
When they shine them streets, they're gonna find our song

Chorus x2

I'm on your street , they all cry to me
